Fantasy and Horror
Deadly Magic...
An impossible book...
A last desperate roll of the dice…
Real magic has always claimed a high price from those brave—or ruthless—enough to wield its power. One obscure book could overturn everything those magicians thought they knew. If what it claims is true, a single talented and dedicated practitioner might change the world. Not just in the present, but in the past—and the future.
In 1999, this book falls into the hands of one man. One man, with the potential to rewrite reality. One man standing in the way of a sinister group who want to turn the world’s politicians into their puppets. One man who can stop humanity becoming a race of slaves...
That one man is Roger Philburn. He’s a postman with a gambling problem who lives with his mother in South London.
Sometimes, we don’t get the hero we need. We get the hero we deserve...
Here's what readers have to say about this book....
A friend told me about this book. It was a wonderful surprise. I found it fascinating. Once I started reading, I couldn’t put it down. So very different totally intriguing and exciting. A really good read.
This is a must read. I can't believe this is a debut book, it is amazing. I am normally a slow reader but this had me emersed in the characters and story, and I read it cover to cover pretty quickly. If fantasy is your thing then this is really for you. If not give it a try anyway as it is so well written the description of the places and characters will take you into their world.
I can’t find any other books by this author so I’m assuming it is a debut novel. If that’s the case, it’s a fantastic start! I read it in a couple of sittings, it had me involved from the first page. If you like fantasy set in our world, the story is for you.
